en it es - Letter from the imprisoned members of the CCF on the new prosecutions (Greece)

From Actforfreedomnow!boubourAs-Contrainfo-Sysiphus – Respect & Solidarity:The choice of claiming responsibility and not capitulation
We, as Conspiracy of Cells of Fire – imprisoned members,
chose and claimed responsibility from inside the prison for our
participation in our project. The responsibility claim is the least way
to defend and honour the most beautiful acts that we share. Not as a
memory that fades away after our arrests but as a living reality and
prospect of carrying on our actions in the continuous present, the here
and now.
We believe that the responsibility claim and the words we express
through this contribute decisively to the intensification of anarchist
action. It is an open offence towards the apologetic low-key stance that
the prosecutors and interrogaters wanted to extract from us. This
attitude reveals the existence of two different worlds. A world of power
on one side and on the other the world of anarchy, which are in
perpetual war with each other.
The responsibility claim in no way constitutes a self-referential
choice, but is a conscious extension of the way someone lives as an
anarchist urban guerilla. It is also a signal, a connection with the
comrades from outside. An answer to the question that has never been
asked. That some choices of battle are worth fighting for despite their
cost. It’s a way to publicly defend the action, the path and our
experience directly and openly. It is an individual existential mutiny
in captivity which inevitably meets with the collective process of the
attempted destruction of modern civilization. We do not believe that the
responsibility claim is a sacrifice in the name of an idea; on the
contrary, it is the idea that is sacrificed off the field of inoffensive
symbolisms to its transformation into praxis.
From the beginning of our actins we have left the syndrome of fear of
arrest and prison out of our baggage. We know that captivity is often a
temporary station in the path of an anarchist urban guerrilla. So we
left all legal inhibitions and hesitations behind us, remaining
unrepentant in our choice. The choice of guerrilla action and the
spreading of anarchy. On the contrary surrender and defeat does not
dwell in us even for a moment. We never bowed and will never bow our
heads to interrogators and judges. So this is why by refusing so much to
appear either in the interrogating agencies as well as the courtrooms,
whether with our refusal to appear or with our absolutely offensive
presence, we abolish the language of laws, of compromise and
capitulation. Besides, it is contradictory to say the least to respect
laws after one has passionately declared absolute war against power and
its culture of law.
Even when the enemy has no evidence against us, as in the case of the 250 C.C.F. attacks, not a word of apology, nor any evidence of innocence or alibis will be obtained from us.
It is a fact that all the investigating authorities have in their
hands is the responsibility claim that we made of our participation in
the conspiracy. Besides, the practice and strategy of every
conspiratorial group of anarchist direct action is to not leave behind
‘incriminating’ evidence, only traces and fire that carve an indelible
scar on the face of the world of exploitation, hypocrisy and isolation
II) Let’s attack the managers and superiors of this civilisation.
This is what power wants to hit. The decision of some people to not
kneel before the world of idols. In the world of dead objects, TV
screens, advertising messages, police batons, prisons. In order to hit
this choice, fear must win. Fear of arrest, prison, death. Judges,
prosecutors and interrogators are working day and night for this
dictatorship of fear. At the same time all of them want to represent the
anarchist urban guerilla and the fighting groups and promote them as
caricatures of misery and power sickness. Thus, they assign certain
indictments to comrades as instigators or with managerial positions. But
an anarchist group is not contaminated by the poison of power. There
are neither leaders nor followers. There are only free autonomous
individuals who put their hostility to this rotten system into practice.
Pure strong action like the fire that burns inside us. If prosecutors
and interrogators have learned to follow the orders of their political
superiors, they must know that an untamable spirit does not take orders
from anyone and does not give his conscience a boss. If they are looking
for managers, ‘instigators’ or agents, let them look in the mirror. An
anarchist collective has no centralized hierarchical structure. It acts
through horizontal assemblies with mutiny as its compass. Specifically,
the Conspiracy of Cells of Fire is a network of autonomous cells which
works feverishly for the destruction of the authoritarian world. This is
our wager and we will never give up.
III) The fire continues to burn inside us – the wager of FAI / IRF
A wager that we never abandoned, also inside the prisons where we are
right now. We remain alive without bowing to discipline in our punitive
transfers in which they take their revenge in the special conditions
that they try to impose on us. We keep the passion for freedom
inextinguishable and relive even for a moment in the beauty of a small
guerrilla action such as the moments that we experienced in our recent
escape attempt. The war we have declared on power knows no truce. This
frightens the enemy, who tries to silence us in every way. That there
are repeated prosecutions brought against us even for a text written in
prison is not accidental. The fact that the State is even afraid of our
words, gives us new strength, new smiles. Because it means that our
words are escaping from the cells of captivity and meeting new comrades
seeking to plan their own battles against power.
At the same time our mutiny is associated with the FAI international conspiracy (Informal Anarchist Federation)
promoting the prospect of an international revolutionary front.
Messengers of chaos send from everywhere their messages of
insubordination through fire, explosions and vandalism, eliminating the
takeover of power in Mexico, Chile, Argentina, Bolivia, Peru, England, Spain, Italy, Indonesia, in Russia and anywhere the projects of FAI / IRF are spreading. The F.A.I.
is an invitation to think, talk, express our desires, exist as free and
autonomous individuals, not as shadows of a sad imitation of ourselves
hostage to the conventions and constraints of power. Conspiring against
the State means I breathe freely. Every day in our insubordination, in
prison, in anarchist illegality, in our subversive plans, in our stormy
discussions, our noisy actions, in our explosive feelings we conquer
more breaths of freedom. The support and promotion of the projects of
the FAI / IRF is the unrepentant choice to continue to live passionately
and subversively cutting once and for all the bridges of a return to
the normality of a quiet peaceful and law-abiding life.
In this frantic course, there can be no illusions. It is expected
that the opponent makes up their own plans as well. It paves the way for
its counter-attack at the communication and militaristic level. The
retaliation of the repression is organizing to consolidate fear inside
subversive circles.
IV. The coordinated and orchestrated anti-anarchist campaign, which was
launched in September 2009 with the first arrests against the CCF, is
not yet a closed case.
In the last two and a half intervening years a lot has happened. For
every blow that the Conspiracy was making, the Anti-Terrorist Unit was
inventing a new arrest. How many people were detained and photographed
for headlines and news bulletins, until it was finally proven that they
had nothing to do with our case… Who can forget the arrest of fans of
AEK’s football team who carried petards [a type of firework],
which was featured as the arrest of members of the Conspiracy of Cells
of Fire? The State has declared a regime of emergency against the
circles of subversive anarchy. But the regime of an ‘emergency status’
marks the death of reason. A typical example of this is the recent media
manipulation, on the State’s part, of a time-delay incendiary device’s
placement in an empty subway car. Apart from how this action was
distorted, in order to construct new phobic syndromes in regards to the
new urban guerrilla warfare, two wanted anarchist revolutionaries, G.M.
and D.P., were singled out and then named as this hit’s perpetrators.
The paradox in this case is that the anti-terrorist wizards themselves
declare they have no evidence whatsoever (DNA, surveillance cameras,
fingerprints, eyewitness testimonies) against the two comrades,
nevertheless are sure of their involvement. This is the trans-evolution
of the ‘scientific’ inquiries by the Anti-Terrorist Unit. The certainty
of cops alone will suffice for some people’s ‘culpability’. So, now the
players are known and the deck is marked. It is no coincidence that a
few days later a new circle of investigations began regarding the 250
attacks of the Conspiracy of Cells of Fire, for which also the wanted
comrades G.M. and D.P. have been summoned. At the same time, the
renowned inquisitors Mokkas and Baltas call along with us also all those
who have been accused for the Conspiracy’s case, although they bear no
relation to the organization.
This is the culmination of the State’s machinated anti-anarchist
operation, which arrested persons on grounds unrelated to the
Conspiracy, and still presents them as members of the Conspiracy of
Cells of Fire, in order to prolong their hostage situation.
In short, the Conspiracy serves the interrogators as the sinker for
new prosecutions, which submerges irrelevant cases and rebaptizes them
as ‘participation in a terrorist organization’.
This tactic bears similarities that are strongly reminiscent of the case of the Italian phantom organization O.R.A.I.,
which was invented by the renowned prosecutor Marini; an organization
which, in this specific case, even though it did not exist, became the
alibi of the prosecuting authorities for a series of prosecutions and
imprisonments against insurrectionary comrades.
At our end, we do not intend to concede even the slightest suspicion
of retreat and ceasefire to the interrogators. We remain unrepentant,
increasing the density of the collision.
‘We’re not retreating, we stand firm; we’re not trying, we can; we’re
not begging, we rob; we’re not extinguishing, we burn; we’re not
anticipating, we look forward. The Conspiracy will never be arrested
because it’s not simply an organization, but rather a stream of ideas,
and ideas are always elusive. The day isn’t yet marked on the calendar.
All months, all weeks, all days are always available. A day will be
marked with a smile, the smile of meeting again for the continuation of OUR adventure…’

Letters from Anarchist Prisoners of the "Bombs Case" in Chile

This document is a collection of letters from the Chilean anarchist “Bombs Case” prisoners, in an effort to share and spread their ideas beyond the prison walls. On August 14th, 2010, fourteen anarchists and anti-authoritarians were arrested in a series of raids in Santiago in what became known as the `Bombs Case`. They were accused of a series of bombings against capital and the state that took place around Santiago in the previous years, as well as of “criminal conspiracy” under the Pinochet-era Anti-Terrorist Laws. Since then, following a hunger strike by the prisoners, as well as countless solidarity actions from around the world, the charges against nine of the accused have been dropped (one of these people is facing other charges in a separate trial), but charges against five comrades remain. They are: Omar Hermosilla and Carlos Riveros, accused of providing the money to finance the costs of the attacks, as well as Mónica Caballero, Felipe Guerra, Francisco Solar, accused of the placement of the explosive devices at different points in Santiago. The trial started on November 28, 2011. Prisoners kidnapped by the State to the street! click the cover PDF
